RFS2 2010 Activity Report

Report Form ID: RFS0101

Expires [PENDING]

The RFS0101 RFS2 Activity report is only applicable for RIN activity from July 1, 2010 through December

31, 2010. EPA will release a revised report to add or remove certain data columns for RIN activity in calendar year 2011. This report is applicable for any activity of RFS1 and RFS2 RINs transferred under RFS2 regulations. Supplemental information for RFS2 RINs will be provided by EMTS after the end of each quarter.

Any party that owns RINs during a given quarter shall summarize all RIN activities for the reporting period as described under Sec. 80.1451(c)(2). Reports must be submitted individually for separated and assigned RINs. (i.e. a company that handles both separated and assigned RINs will submit 2 lines of reporting information.)

Obligated Parties with more than one registered facility may submit individual reports for each of their facilities, or aggregate facilities into a single report. Obligated parties that are gasoline importers with multiple import facilities must aggregate. Obligated parties who are both refiners and importers must report refiner and importer information separately.

This report is due quarterly: First quarter (January – March) reports are due May 31; Second quarter (April – June) reports are due August 31; Third quarter (July – September) reports are due November 30; Fourth quarter (October – December) reports are due February 28.
